Anyone Know Where To Get This Kind Of Mesh In Vic?


Recommended Posts

umm maybe a closeup? it could be the thick perforated and twisted mesh used on some security doors.

Just go to any secuity door factory and ask for offcuts and scraps. I'm sure they won't mind giving you a little.

i got mine from a bus panel beater its the same mesh that they use in the ventelation on the rear engine bay doors

the ony reason i put it on was to stop birds from dint and hitting my cooler

cost be 20 bucks for a huge square i just cut it down and bent to suit

thanks guys, unfortunately i dun have a bigger pic. I tried asking around, went to a few places but the mesh is all the same, ie the thin ones. Anyone knows any panel shop or somewhere where i can purchase them?

Check out an aluminium window/door manufacturer. My company sometimes uses what is often called 'DVA' or 'one-way' mesh in security doors instead of normal flywire. It is hard to tell from your pic but this may be the stuff you are after. It is aluminium and available in a heap of powdercoat colour finishes. If no luck, get in contact with the company "Al-Spec" (Aluminium Specialties Group). They are a wholesaler we buy it from. They are nationwide and should be able to put you onto someone in your area who uses the stuff if you ask nicely.

Hope this helps somewhat.

    • Hi Apex and welcome! 
    • Probably too late to reply to this, but worth a try. It's not calliper flex, the calliper as a whole is moving so it has to be calliper mounting bracket flex.  Calliper mounting brackets are designed to stop the calliper rotating, they don't need to be designed heavy duty to stop the calliper moving in and out.  Whatever it is is not the major cause of poor pedal feel, the outer pistons are moving towards the disc rotor the same amount as the inner pistons are moving away from the disc rotor.  Hence no change in fluid usage, what extra fluid is needed to move the outer pistons is recovered from the inner pistons. For a calliper to move as a whole by far the most common reason is the rotor is not perfectly centred in the calliper.  The first thing I check is that hub face is perfectly clean, bare metal, where the rotor hats contacts it.  Then I check the that rotor is firmly held in place by at least 3 wheel nuts (or equivalent). If all of the above are confirmed to be in perfect alignment then I would check the piston sizes and ensure that the 3 inner pistons and 3 outer pistons have matching diameters (eg; 28/32/36mm).  I have seen a no name 4 spot calliper that had 1 of the 4 pistons a different diameter. Maybe I missed it, are both the callipers exhibiting the same problem? I would remove the transfer pipe and inspect it to make sure that there are no restrictions. Maybe you already have but if not I would return them with the video and have them confirm all of the above.   Hope that helps Cheers Gary    
    • If you have the original log book and it didn't have a chassis number quoted, then no money required.  I have "rechassied" a number of race cars, no problem as long as you have the original log book.   Cheers Gary
    • Well the good news is that it won't run any worse with an atmo bov than it does with no bov, I've owned a few Nissans over the years (r32, s15 and now r33), the stalling issue caused by a bov or no bov while still having an afm is easy enough to live with, most people get used to driving them and just feathering the throttle when you come to a stop to avoid it stalling. Changing to a proper ecu with a map sensor is ideal but in the short term I'd just slap in the bov if you really want the whoosh sound. I looked into the pass through type maf like the R35 one above but decided against it as the amount of oil and crap flowing through the hot side would mean you'd have to clean it often to keep it working.
